Poet of the Macabre

Just first of I completely agree with the Jericho stuff being awesome. But i've also noticed a lot of people getting sick of them. It's because he is not being entertaining because that would make the fans cheer for him. If Orton continued to be a badass he would have been cheered. And then that negates the whole idea of a face-heel dynamic.

But do you not think it's not a very "heelish thing to do? By that I mean attacking the Mcmahon's. They're so often seen as slimy gits who are there because they have money so generally people are quite happy when they get their asses kicked. You may have seen otherwise, but the day after Orton punted Vince the forums were red hot about awesome this was. They weren't exactly saying "What a bad guy Orton his, I want to see him beat"

Nah, a lot of people were still cheering him though. I mean when he RKO'd Steph there was a huge pop. I don't see how taking out the Mcmahon's is a heel thing to do anyway

King's game includes gamesmanship. He acts like an arse on the oche and then is the kindest soul going afterwards. Used to hate him, but now I appreciate his "heelness"

Orton-Mcmahon thing is awesome. The reason they're making Orton look cowardly is so people will boo him at Mania. "Cool heels" might be entertaining, but they just don't work. HBK-Taker should be EPIC

I taped it Toma-RAW is immense so far in 2009 I love the look for Mania so far

Tbh, I doubt it had anything to do with a deal with SlimJim. Vince has welcomed back people for a lot worse. FFS, he hired Bischoff! I think a guy as popular as Randy Savage would have been brought back if Vince wasn't still pissed that he bonked his princess

Shhhh

Carter in the final. Beat Hamitlon 6-5. Swail v Robertson on now

How to get there? What signs to bring? A brief run through of your experiences?

I'm going to Braehead on the 23rd April for Smackdown/ECW show. Any tips/suggestions?

tbh, the wrestling isn't always most important thing to me. The whole "soap opera" stuff is part of the fun. Many people say that wrestling is like a circus, if you don't like the clown you'll like the trapeeze artist etc. But I enjoy the whole circus. I like the wrestling, the stroylines, the girls, the comedy, the fans. If you have a show which is too top-heavy then chances are, I won't enjoy it.

I can't believe anyone enjoys ECW. I have tried countless times but I have to switch it off.

Yokozuna was actually samoan. I really thought he was a big Jap. Just read Bret Hart's autobiography. Good read.

Why do Leeds hate Man United by the way? I never understood this. Isn't that sort of like the Rovers hating Celtic or Rangers?

Although in TNA he was a big star, I have to agree that i never saw Christian as a major player. I think he could be a top level player but it remains to be seen whether he can get over or not. Like Jericho though, I think he works better as a heel. Could we spoiler tag any things like this in future? I don't mind this one so much but for things like matches on PPV's and future angles I prefer to remain ignorant.

I have to say the timing of it being locked is more than suspect. perhaps you did it out of spite and are now too embaressed to re-open it? Would love to see Jericho-Hogan I don't think Christian is being punished. I think that Vince hates it when people know exactly what is going to happen so likes to have random things happening to keep people guessing. Since everyone assumed Christian would return at the Rumble he waited and put him on ECW. Hopefully he can get Swagger more over before moving to RAW/Smackdown and getting some damm good feuds going.

Why are the Leeds fans still insulting all the other clubs in the league? A little humilty might stop everyone taking the piss when you lose once again.

Welsh Open started yesterday. Hendry, Day, Ebdon and Perry gone first round

I never said anything about the BDO doing anything other than going out of business.

I know this is slightly vearing off tangent, but the situation within darts is very similar to that of wrestling. It was always seen as a lower class sport with not a lot of money available. The the WWF arrived (see PDC) who changed the public's perception of the sport by making it into "sports entertainment" While the WWF prospered, the old school promotions (see BDO) were left grumbling about how it wasn't real sport and they were "real" All the while though members of the old promotions see the huge amounts of cash available and eagerly jump ship. Eventually the talent will be bled dry and there will be no other promotion. And when Taylor finally calls it quits, we will probably see darts take yet another different turn, just like the WWF were forced to do when they lost their number 1 draw, Hulk Hogan. I hope that the PDC begin some sort of talent program where young players can learn from legends of the game on not only hop to improve their game, but how to handle the pressures of being on Sky and under the lights

tbh, R-Truth is basically Booker T. WWE lost him so they just replaced him with a guy who looks, talks and acts the same whilst having the same finisher

Back to the Piper-Jericho promo, I think that is the best thing I have seen since Flair-Foley stuff. I was almost crying at how emotional Piper was about feeling that buzz for 1 second. Amazing stuff. And I think i'm in wuff http://www.wwe.com/superstars/divas/dailydivas/

Kane has always been Glen Jacobs. Mike Knox is not Snitsky Umaga used to be Jamal of 3 minute warning

Hereford 2-0 Leeds Not looking good
